Question

I need a answer for this

Answer 1

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

a^2 + 8^2 = 10^2

a^2 +64=100

a^2 = 100-64

a^2 = 36

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(a^2) = sqrt(36)

a = 6
